Tuya Dev account renewal steps

[rbthompsonv]

Tuya recently purged their free trial users. This doesnt do anything other than mean that you need to re-create your dev access in the Tuya IOT site.

proceed to: https://developer.tuya.com/

Click on IOT Platform (or sign in)

This should bring you to the familiar 3 panel interface:

click on the cloud icon to the left:

then, CLOUD SERVICES:

This will bring you to your cloud services page. from there, the first subcategory should be IoT Core, click on VIEW DETAILS:

Finally, run through the application for a free trial. I am missing those screen shots as Ive written this after the fact. If someone can respond with pics of the process, ill put them in line.

There WILL be a short wait while they “review” your application (it took about 10 minutes for me). You can check back to the IoT Core page to see when you’ve been processes and you should see “Your application for extension is approved”.

Brilliant post. Its just a shame there isnt a simple renew option on the email they send. Thank you.

Thanks a million! Having all the steps as images is super helpful. Also, just a heads up, I tried this on my phone browser and the UI gets really messed up, and even when I somehow managed to get to the end, the bar to hit submit was not there, no matter what orientation, desktop mode, etc. Use a full sized computer to do this

At least the first pic of the free trial extension process… I forgot to take a screen-shot of the second one because I filled it out and clicked “ok”…
